Um…
Time flies so fast.
After the King or rather, my official Big brother publicly introduces me and the heroes to the masses, the day after that, rigorous training came to everyone, be it handling their own Soul Weapon or training in magic.
I also trained too you know. I am also reading a lot of magic books. A weapon is impossible for as my hands are too small to handle a standard sword.
But most of the time, I am at King Fon's room to play with him. It became a routine for me. I will also occasionally visit Violetta's room.
She would sometimes talk about their adventuring day with King Fon, Lily, and Edelweiss. She would sometimes talk about her master in magic. Her eyes will sparkle when I ask about her magic.
Edelweiss and Lily would drag me to the Castle’s huge bath. The bath is so spacious. It has fountains and large tub, er, more like a steaming swimming pool.
Everyone would, of course, will enter the bath sometimes, men excluded. It is definitely a feast for the eyes. Unfortunately, I am a little girl now.
Um, truth be told, I can’t use any elemental magic. I can’t use body enhancement too. I was able to use dimensional storage normally, though. I was able to use heal for injuries, cure for abnormalities in the body and Barrier for self-protection.
Violetta told me that dimensional storage is a really rare skill. She said the only people she knew who can use it right now are herself, me, her master, the demon king and Priscilla.
It seems Priscilla is using magic for cleaning convenient.
She doesn’t train with others, but the castle is sparkling clean every day. The maids she trained became elegant and dexterous to an extent that they obtained lesser dust detection skill from Priscilla. The servants buff up and move at blinding speed while cleaning.
Something happened one time too, the king gathered everyone and pleaded to them,
“Everyone, I have a heartfelt request from everyone!”
He looked serious. Ichirou urges the king to speak politely. Mana seems to be in a bad mood that day she grumbled quietly “I think it will be something stupid again”
Everyone lend their ears to the king’s earnest request.
“It may sound unfair, but I don’t want Asagao to go to battle. No, as possible, I want her to stay here with me. She is young and really fragile. She tends to shy away and panics to strangers, so I wanted her to take an easy pace with us in the castle.”
He bow down.
Ichirou, who is the most shameless among the men, blurted out.
“Are you an idiot? To tell you the truth I was working hard that each night my whole body trembles from the pain of training to be strong. To make sure that we don’t even need to ask a help from a little girl you know!”
Ichirou, that was a cool speech there. Or is it because you just looked fairly good.
“It is as Ichirou said! As a teacher, I can’t let someone like Asagao go to in life and death battle!”
If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.
“Hmph! A punk like me don’t need a little girl help, she can just laze around here you know!”
“That is the case, Your majesty! I have prepared only the right cache of supplies for 13 people, adding 1, no, half is not a problem but, I, Priscilla, who have taken care of this child too, don’t want her in a field of barbarians.”
“You are saying being unfair now when you pulled as from our world, but yeah, Asagao must not be exposed to danger!”
After that, everyone followed suit. Even I know about it, you see. I don’t know how does this King think.
“Thank you, everyone! I am just over thinking things. I have this bad habit of thinking negatively, so thank you.”
That happened you know. It was obvious from the start that I won’t be coming with them.
Not only I can’t use offensive magic, I can’t even hold any weapons and only learned a handful of magic. Although Violetta praised my barrier for being strong...at my age that is.
And the day of departure. The people are crowding and cheering in the street from left to right. I, who has a case of truant, was still able to go out in the capital city, albeit when accompanied by one of the heroes.
I discovered many things like, there is a standard adventurer’s guild, inn’s that accommodate people for their rest, pub that people gather to exchange and trade information, weapon and armor shop and much more for people who travels.
I was a total celebrity.
Whenever I go out just to explore and try out the sweets shop, people will crowd nearby and gossip.
I wonder why but I can only hear admiration like “Princess is so angelic” or “Princess will grow up into a splendid woman!” and “I want her to ste-“ no!
Going back to the departure of the hero who wave left and right to the cheering people. Even though some of them mutated to other races, it seems people don’t mind it.
In fact, when I got out in town with Teacher Rose, who is now a part-fairykin, many men tried to hit on her. We later heard that the man who tried to hit on Teacher Rose was beaten up by a dragonkin with red hair.

I hated goodbyes, but the same thing goes for them. They almost extended their stay when I tear up a bit.
Most of them were cries not because they have an attachment to this castle but to me. I know that much.
Ichirou left dejected. Why?
He confessed to Lily and was magnificently shot down.
Susanoo was…clinging to me like a dead man.
Priscilla had to take him out with a black hole to separate him away from me. They have weird camaraderie.
“UEHH! ASAGAO! DON’T GROW TOO MUCH WHEN WE GET BACK OK!”
Wah?!
Why are you saying this to me Ruri!
Dreg just patted my head while turning his back.
Teacher Rose said to me:
“UH! ASAGAO! DON’T FORGET TO BRUSH YOUR TEETH OK? DON’T GO WITH STRANGERS OK? DON’T BE LIKE KING FO-“
She is definitely not talking anything bad about King Fon.
Baccara faces King Fon who is watching us.
“King Fon, just to be clear. You are going to protect her right?”
“That goes without saying”
“If and if ever something were to happen to her, I will make sure that-“
The threat is real. Baccara, Priscilla-san, and Shun became the top caster of the group you know.
There was one time too that Priscilla and Susanoo fought each other with all they’ve got. if I remember correctly, what happened is...
I don’t have any idea what was happening as a spectator. Priscilla will always shoot out dark spinning bullets at Susanoo and he will dodge it splendidly.
Susanoo seems like he can warp up a space in the air, enter it, and exit from it within the range of the skill of the warp.
He threw things like anti-matter inside it and randomly shoots it up to Priscilla. Priscilla though, her defense is impregnable as she was walking with black holes around her.
Well, in the end, Priscilla admitted defeat when a portion of her skirt was burned. It seems it is still not the full potential of their Arcana magic.
Although, Edelweiss will wipe them all 13 of them out in an all-out battle with her soul weapon, a War Hammer that is bigger and thicker than me.
Edelweiss and Lily seem to be a variant too who both uses soul weapon and enchantment magic.
“That just proves that everyone of you should have more battle experience.”
Is what Edelweiss said.
After we cried a bit more, they resolved their selves and set out on their destined journey. They are now headed to the Valley of Ancients to train under the Dragon King.
Me?
Next week will be The King's Birthday~!
I want to sew a cape for him! I am almost done you know?!
